Another Old Friend Bites The Dust

This majestic old hickory had to be removed due to the storm damage that it incurred.  This tree was the source of many memories.  The late Grandpa Meads fixed a tire swing to it's massive limbs.  Our girls would spend hours in that swing.

As with our first hickory removal, the work was done by our friends at WV Tree, Inc in Gassaway, WV.  This tree was much harder and more time consuming than the first.  The huge limbs were endangering the house, so rope work was especially important on this job.

Leroy is THE MAN with the chain saw.  His skills are amazing.

Alas, the tree is safely down!

Now life begins without our old friend!
